What a Fool Believes

She came from somewhere back in her long ago
Sentimental fools don't see tryin' hard to recreate
What had yet to be created
Once in a life she musters a smile
For his nostalgic tale
Never coming near what he wanted to say
Only to realize it never really was

She (She) had a place in his life
He (He) never made her think twice

What a fool believes
He sees
Wise man has the power (The power)
To reason away, hey (Away)
What seems
To be
Always better than nothing (Nothing)
Nothing at all

Keeps sending him somewhere back in her long ago
Where he can still believe there's a place in her life
Someday, somewhere she will return

She (She) had a place in his life
He (He) never made her think twice
As he rises to her apology
Anybody else will surely know (Surely know)
He's watching her go (Watching her go)

What a fool believes (Oh)
He sees
Wise man has the power (The power)

To reason away (Reason away)
What seems (If love can come and love can go)
To be (Then why can't love return once more?)
Always better than nothing (Who's got the power?)
Nothing at all

What a fool believes (I believe she's never gone away)
He sees (Oh, yeah)
Wise man has the power (Ha)
To reason away (Yeah)

What a fool believes (Mm)
Believes (Believes)
(Let me do something like, "Believes")
(Let me do that last one)
